52% of Uganda's 36 million people are children below the age of 15, and the future belongs to them. Unfortunately, 71% of them are not finishing primary school in time. This is caused by, among other reasons, low competence, low literacy rates and lack of interest. In fact, Uganda is ranked lowest in the region in literacy according to a Uwezo 2012 report.
The Uganda Spelling Bee was created to enable children improve their literacy, learn key life skills and develop social skills. We believe this will not only help and motivate them to complete school but also transform them into change agents and credible leaders.
We believe that words change the world, and the Uganda Spelling Bee will help children learn new words, their meanings and how to use them in sentences. This will enable them to understand concepts better, pass standardized tests and stay in school longer.
This year's Grand Finale will bring together outstanding teams (schools) from Tororo, Kampala and Wakiso to tussle it out for the final award. The Spelling Bee starts in schools where children work with their peers, teachers and parents in preperation for the championship. They learn to spell words around the values of Character, Responsibility, Excellence, Empathy and Discipline (CREED). The children then compete among themselves to make the school team, which then represents the school in the zonal/regional competitions. The two outstanding teams at the zonal/regional level will make it to the Grand Finale.
We are excited to present Uganda Spelling Bee season 2 (2014). We thank our partners enjuba group, KCCA, Awesome Foundation, Hudor Water, Prime Hotel-Tororo for their support in making this to happen.
